Problem w/notes in window schedule

Stress Co_

I have a very simple window schedule that I used on project in AC9 . Somehow, I added a parameter called Notes/remarks.

I can't figure out how I did it as this parameter doesn't exist in the available list. I'm trying to use it again on another project and can't. (in AC9)

So my first question is: How'd I do it???

2nd question: Why can't I change the note in the schedule. If I edit the text, the Update button greys out. If I hit Apply ... the changes are lost.

I'm using Cadimage D/W builder windows.

This worked fine on the earlier project.... now nada. I'm about to resort to pasting text over the schedule

Oops, it is probably easier to 'enable' the FM/Listing parameters (in blue), try un-X-ing the 'User Defined 1', etc. fields - that is where you can put/call your text...

Thanks Dan/Andy..... I was on a deadline.... and for this one... resorted to laying text over the schedule I'll mess with it on the next one.
